Language Development01:22

Language Development

Children master language quickly and with relative ease, supported by both biological predisposition and reinforcement. B. F. Skinner (1957) proposed that language is learned through reinforcement, while Noam Chomsky (1965) argued that language acquisition mechanisms are biologically determined.
The critical period for language acquisition suggests that the ability to acquire language is at its peak early in life. As people age, this proficiency decreases. Language development begins very...
The Nativist Approach01:21

The Nativist Approach

The nativist approach to infant cognitive development proposes that infants are born with inherent knowledge structures that allow them to interpret the world almost immediately. This perspective contrasts with earlier developmental theories, such as those proposed by Jean Piaget, which emphasized a more gradual acquisition of cognitive abilities through interaction with the environment. One key concept in this approach is object permanence — the understanding that objects continue to exist...
Development of the Oral Microbiota01:28

Development of the Oral Microbiota

The establishment of the oral microbiome begins before birth, challenging the long-held belief that the fetal oral cavity is sterile. The presence of oral microbes such as Streptococcus and Fusobacterium in amniotic fluid suggests that microbial exposure may occur in utero, potentially through translocation from the maternal oral or gastrointestinal tract. This early colonization primes the neonatal immune system and sets the stage for subsequent microbial succession. Maternal health,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Full-term and preterm infants show similar phonological discrimination abilities by 12 months corrected age. However, preterm infants may require more memory resources for this developmental milestone.

Area of Science:

  • Developmental Psychology
  • Linguistics
  • Neuroscience

Context:

  • Infant phoneme acquisition is largely complete by one year.
  • Early speech exposure shapes native phoneme learning and non-native phoneme sensitivity.
  • The impact of premature speech exposure on phonological development is not well understood.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the effects of premature speech exposure on phonological discrimination.
  • To compare phonological discrimination in full-term and preterm infants at 12 months corrected age.

Summary:

  • This study compared phonological discrimination in healthy full-term and preterm infants at 12 months corrected age using event-related evoked potentials.
  • Results indicate that both groups achieve similar levels of phonological discrimination.
  • Preterm infants may utilize greater memory resources compared to full-term infants.

Impact:

  • Phonological acquisition at one year is comparable between full-term and preterm infants.
  • Suggests potential differences in cognitive resource allocation during early language development.
  • Informs understanding of developmental trajectories in infants with varying birth timings.
